hi,
you have to issue a "make install" in PiDiP folder so that it installs fonts in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF ( you can also check this manually )
PiDiP ( Imlib2 in fact ) will not support any ttf files, the one provided is allright but some won't work, it's still a mystery to me .. .
cheers,

hi, i'm trying PiDiP's pdp_text object from version 0.10.1 - pidip loads with this message:
pdp_text: version 0.1 : text rendering object written by ydegoyon@free.fr pdp_text : severe error : could not load default font : no rendering !!!
pdp_text responds to the font message this way:
pdp_text : could not load font : >helmetr/14< pdp_text : could not load font : >helmetr/5<
i have imlib2 from .rpms: [root@blini bin]# rpm -qa |grep imlib2 imlib2-devel-1.0.6-1 imlib2-1.0.6-1
what do i need to do to get this object to work? oh yes: i'm on linux obviously, RH7.2 w/ some updates.
thanks, bill
